Hey, let me tell some history.

When GnomeICU succeeded GtkICQ, GnomeICU just worked without GNOME
envionment.  But during the update process it had dropped support for
non-GNOME environment and came to work only with GNOME, while GtkICQ
had also been maintained independently.

That's the reason we have both of the ports in Japanese category
though GtkICQ isn't maintained enough.  Some may want to keep using
GtkICQ just because they don't want GNOME.

So, you didn't have to remove the GtkICQ port, I suppose.  But if you
think GtkICQ is obsolete and you recommend kicq or whatever instead
for non-GNOME environment, I won't stand against it.

Just FYI.


I've been using GnomeICU, by the way. (#1684809)
